Is it practical? If I ever get the Typhoon I bought ( ), I may try that, just not sure if it's worth it.

Well it depends if you only plan on using C02. Compressed air tanks are sold so cheap nowadays that dual regging is kind of pointless since almost all of the screw in tank regulators actually perform fairly well.

No, I'm not using HPA. Without going into any details, I prefer to use CO2.

I used dual stabes on a Blazer and the consistency was insane. Also had it anti-syphoned.

+-1 at the chrono with just about any paint.

The Stabe cuts liquid co2 down really well. With 2 of those and Anti-syphon combo'd into the deal I never froze up my tank. The standard stabe has a ratio of around 70:1 (I think) which means the input pressure has to change 70 psi for the output to change 1 psi. Co2 being unstable as it is can swing from 900-600 psi under normal shooting conditions. The female stabe output will change about 4 psi. Which means the second male stabe will stay spot on.

I don't know what the prime operating pressure of a Typhoon is. I had my female stabe set to around 550 and my male stabe set to 400 on my Blazer.

Really it's a luxury item. But it does have it's benefits for Co2 use.

That's why I asked - most Typhoons need 500-600 psi. My old KP-based Typhoon needed 650psi.

1-2% gain is IMHO not worth the weight or money involved.

I've been shooting a Typhoon for the past 2 years with one stab and a anti-syphon tank. I really don't see the need for it. It's accurate as hell. I out range about any marker. If you were thinking of spending another $100 to upgrade your Typhoon I would get the pro touch trigger job and 2 QEV. If you have not yet done that.

It's already got both - I just wish I'd hear back from the guy if he's shipped it.

I'm mostly about consistency and accuracy - but like B said, it's not worth it to run 2 Stabilizers on a Typhoon.

I have 1 stab on a Stroker, and it's +/- 5 fps with good paint. And that's not even a pedigreed PPS gun.
